Now, the GOP has a "purity test" for candidates that not even Bush or Reagan could pass
I must admit, I shifted from Republican to Independent about the mid-60's, once I became involved in the Civil Right's movement I found my beliefs far to the left of both parties. I had little regard for "liberals" cause I saw them as two-faced and cowardly (especially in the south), at least when I came face to face with the Klan, I knew where I stood. Not much has changed for me over the past 40 years or so...
